hi
I Am working in a senior design couse in college of engineering
····· my project about desgining device for Preventing Falling Asleep While Driving or Sleep Alert System(SAS)
i did the whole work and its ready but im finding an alternative for the closed open eyes sensor. because in focus in the eye detection , my idea was to send IR LED light to the eye and detect the reflaction from the eye. but its not good enough.
So my objctive is to get agood detection for closed open eye detection for the driver of the car.
either its close to the eye like eye glasses or in the front of the driver.
so is it avaible? or is there any idea?

    IR absorption by the pupil works; we had a system at BAe that used the technique for detecting gaze direction with a video camera. You won't do it on a BASIC Stamp, though, it needs far more processing power. Our system did the image processing on a PC.
